Nano 08, Day 25

Yesterday I pounded out 5,000 words. That's 1/10 of my goal for the month. The day before that, I managed 4k, which is also impressive. Now I'm still behind, but only by 6k, which I've just showed I can almost hit in one day if I really put my mind to it. Hopefully by the end of the day, I'll be less than 4k behind, and ready to catch to be caught up by Thanksgiving Day.

The showdown between Rachel and myself has heated up. We are closely guarding out daily word counts, hoping that the other suffers a power outage or is attacked by rabid monkey demons who steal her laptop so she is forced to chase after them for two hours, losing 2k potential words. She's playing catch up, but is doing a very good job at it, and the reward of most days writing the most words is still up in the air.

16,000 words to go, 6 days to write. I can totally do this.
